Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 CNUI40.E1P2#ZZZB400F – Full Review of the 140 cm Integrated Ceiling Hood with Dynamic LED Light and White Finish

The Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 CNUI40.E1P2#ZZZB400F (EAN 8034122363172) is a 140 cm integrated ceiling hood from Falmec's Design Collection, in white finish (white-lacquered steel + frosted silk-screen extra clear glass central panel), with perimeter extraction and Dynamic LED Light colour temperature adjustment. Falmec's Nuvola is the most radical integration project in the kitchen hood catalogue: rather than being a visually prominent element in the room, it literally disappears into the ceiling or false ceiling, with a profile of only 18.6 cm in height and a cutout of 590×1325 mm. Once installed, only the frame and the frosted glass central panel remain visible — the rest is ceiling. It is the solution for open-plan environments where kitchen and living share the same space and where the visual presence of a traditional hood would break the architectural continuity. Perimeter extraction — the fundamental technical characteristic of ceiling hoods — captures cooking fumes and steam rising upward by natural convection before they spread into the room, across the entire perimeter edge rather than from a central point. Dynamic LED Light — 4×11W adjustable from 2,700K (warm light) to 5,600K (cool light) — transforms the hood into an adaptive worktop lighting system with adjustable colour temperature. The motor is not included: the hood is compatible with all available Falmec remote motors (from 550 to 1,500 m³/h), allowing the extraction power most suited to the kitchen and installation to be chosen. Remote control is included. Made in Italy, Falmec S.p.A. Conegliano (TV).

Assessment

The Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 CNUI40.E1P2#ZZZB400F is the extraction solution for those who want to completely eliminate the hood as a visual element in the kitchen. The design philosophy is one of absolute integration: the 18.6 cm high hood body disappears into the false ceiling, leaving visible only the frosted silk-screen glass panel and the white frame — a luminous rectangle in the ceiling that by day provides light and by night is architecture. Perimeter extraction across 140 cm is the most effective technique for ceiling hoods: it collects air across the entire perimeter of the hood body, intercepting fumes and steam before they disperse laterally into the room. The 140 cm width — greater than a standard hob — ensures optimal coverage even for large hobs or island configurations with extended cooking surfaces. Dynamic LED Light (4×11W, 2,700K?5,600K) adds significant value: adjustable colour temperature illumination — from a warm evening light to a functional cool light for cooking — makes the hood also an adaptive lighting system for the kitchen area, integrated and invisible. Motor selection is critical and must be calibrated to kitchen area and volume: the Slim motor is suitable for kitchens up to 25 m²; the 950 or 1,300 m³/h remote motor is the right choice for open-plan spaces and large kitchens. The 45 kg weight (without motors) requires a structurally dimensioned false ceiling.

FAQ

Is the motor included in the Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 CNUI40.E1P2#ZZZB400F, and which motor to choose based on kitchen size?

The motor is not included in the Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140: the hood is sold as a body with filters, Dynamic LED lighting and remote control, to be paired with the most appropriate motor. The compatible motor range covers airflows from 550 to 1,500 m³/h. For guidance: the Slim Motor KACL.782#49F (max airflow 550 m³/h, Class D) is the most compact and installs directly in the hood — suitable for smaller kitchens. The Remote roof motor 950 m³/h KACL.798#41F (max airflow 830 m³/h, Class C) is the most common choice for this configuration: it installs in the roof space or a technical recess, significantly reduces perceived noise in the kitchen, and is appropriate for medium kitchens and open-plan spaces up to 40 m². The 1,100 and 1,300 m³/h motors are the choice for large open-plan spaces with intensive cooking. External fans (1,000 and 1,500 m³/h) are used when the motor must be placed outside the building.

What are the structural requirements for installing the Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 in the ceiling or false ceiling?

Installing the Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 requires careful technical planning at the false ceiling design stage or in the assessment of an existing structural ceiling. The primary requirement is that the supporting structure can bear the weight of 45 kg without motors and 65 kg with motors — significant weights that exclude unreinforced standard plasterboard false ceilings. The cutout of 590×1,325 mm must be precisely prepared. The maximum hood body height is 18.6 cm: the false ceiling depth must be dimensioned accordingly, with additional space for duct routing and for the motor if the integrated Slim version is chosen. The maximum permitted distance from the hob is 150 cm (both gas and electric) — important data for verifying compatibility with very high ceilings. Using a Falmec specialist installer is recommended for correct installation.

What is Dynamic LED Light on the Falmec Nuvola, and how is colour temperature adjusted?

Dynamic LED Light on the Falmec Nuvola Led Is.140 is the integrated lighting system with 4 LED strips of 11W each, whose distinctive feature is the ability to electronically adjust the colour temperature of the light across a continuous range from 2,700K (warm light, orange-amber tone, ideal for evening atmosphere) to 5,600K (cool light, white-blue tone, ideal for cooking and kitchen activities requiring good visibility). Adjustment is via the electronic push-button panel or the included remote control. This system — equivalent to "circadian lighting" integrated into the hood — allows the hood to serve not only as an extraction system but as adaptive lighting for the entire kitchen area, changing the light character based on time of day, activity and aesthetic preferences.
